For those who don’t know, he is a twitch streamer/youtuber that talks a lot about mental health, specifically for gamers and people in the internet generation.

In some videos, he does “therapy sessions” (technically they are not for legal purposes, but they definitely feel like therapy) with various people in the twitch/youtube sphere. I am really interested to hear the perspective of different therapists regarding his content.

Are his interactions with people similar to what you see in real therapy sessions? Most importantly, would it be worthwhile studying how he conducts these sessions and learning from them?

Thanks for any insights!

    Awesome, thank you for your perspective on this! That is along the lines of what I have been thinking as well.

    I feel like he has a lot of things right - young men generally seem to be pretty lost right now, and most mental health professionals don’t really understand what their lives are often like. He’s helping an underserved population in a really good way.
